National Guardsmen in all sections of the state, 25,000 strong, laid away their Implements of peace for tools of war. It was a grim, business-like proceeding in most cases. The mobilization order, effective tomorrow, was flashed to Adjutant General Wood from Washington last night. Wood sent orders to all commanding officers on receipt of the Washington dispatch. This technical move was the first of a seriesthat will result in putting the Ohioans on the battle front in France. An order wa.i also received estab lishing the Ohio National guard as a complete division. It has not been definitely determined whether Adjutant General Wood will be made a major general commanding the division, a proposed by Governor Cox. Recruiting to the Ohio forces will continue until August 5, it was an nounced. Relatives accompanied many of the soldiers to the company stations. Tearful farewells were taken in hundreds of homes. Tomorrow the various units not federalize 1 will take the oath of allegiance to the national government. From that moment the state will hold no power over the militia. I Scene rivalled Spanish war days. when 18,000 Ohioans answered the nation's call. At Columbus, mem bers of the ammunition and supply trains and military police, compris ing 16oi nu-n, were given state rec- j ognition today and federalized. They arrived here on five troop trains from various sections of Ohio and went In . to camp at the state fair grounds. I Within two weeks it Is expected all Ohio troops will be enroute to Mont gomery, Ala., for Intensive training. I While held at their home stations the soldiers will be equipped, drilled and vaccinated lo render them Immune from typhoid fever and other diseases. No official act other than Prtsl- regu'ar army since April 2. These enlistments will then have to be arranged according to residence and finally divided according to the exemption 'districts.. This work alone will mean several weeks of labor by large staffs of clerks. When tlie quotas are finally determined, then will come the work of allowing exemptions and dls-chrnges. Care and fairness have been mide the watchwords for exemption boards and this means that there will be no hasty hearings of claims, and that every claim must be substantiated. When affidavits are piesented with claims for exemption, these alliduvidts will hove to be Investigated. All of this will entail considerable time. The final delay will come in the mobilization of the men selected for service. War department men claim that this work will take at least two weeks from the time that the first call noes out and they expect to be at least a month In collecting all of the stragglers who may attempt to evade the darft, or who have been awav from their districts.

The Amsterdam correspondent of the Morning Post cabled today a follows: "Rumors are current her . ; that Emperor William has ab- v dicated In favor of his son, J Prince Joachim. They are un-,: j confirmed, and must be taken with all reserve." . , Prince1 Joachim is the kalser't sixth son. These rumors followed close- fepoa tlio heels of a report that the Raich stag has gone upon a strike and that1 the main committee Is still refusing to vote the 15,000,000,000 mark credit sought by the government. The political dissensions la Germany continue to grow more men-1 uciiig and complicated. The crisis is being watched with the most Intense interest by diplomatic circles in London and Paris, for it is believed that the longer It ' continues the closer it will bring the German government to a realization . of the Inevitable, ' . The allies would rather deal with a disorganized Germany than With ' (w held In the mailed fist of autocracy. A democratized German government - would expect easier . terms of peace, especially so In View of the fact that the U. S., the leading rep, 1 -lie of the world, will be represented at the counsel table. Whether the kaiser had this In niinll when he Issued his rescript, asking equal suffrage for Prussia, or whether It is an empty promise, given at this critical time' to appease the liberals, Is a question that cannot be answered until later. It was apparently the original Intention of the German socialists to cany through a domestic reform program before attempting a peace aims program, as they were doubtful of the centrists attitude, and did not know whether they could obtain a working majority In the" Kelehstag, according to a despatch from The Hague. So, although the adhesion of the centrists was welcomed, it confused the issues. The national liberals were, ready to support a socialistic program but were undecided on the question of a peace without annexations and Indemnities.A Copenhagen telegram quotes the Berliner Tageblatt as saying that the crown council on Monday will go down as one of the momentous events in German history. The kaiser sat at the head of the great mahogany horseshoe shaped table, with the crown prince at his right. Others in attendance were Chancellor Von Bethniann-Hollweg, the secretaries of state and all the Prussian ministers. The Chancellor made a forceful and impassioned speech on the domestic situation and the peace terms. This was to have been the crucial day at the Reichstag, with open debate on the financial position of the government and the proposed constitutional reforms. Thelnter-par-ty resolution of peace also was to have been introduced and discussed. BIGTRANSPORT IE SUNK BY SUB Iindon.

National Guardsmen in all sections of the state, 25,000 strong, laid away their Implements of peace for tools of war. It was a grim, business-like proceeding in most cases. The mobilization order, effective tomorrow, was flashed to Adjutant General Wood from Washington last night. Wood sent orders to all commanding officers on receipt of the Washington dispatch. This technical move was the first of a seriesthat will result in putting the Ohioans on the battle front in France. An order wa.i also received estab lishing the Ohio National guard as a complete division. It has not been definitely determined whether Adjutant General Wood will be made a major general commanding the division, a proposed by Governor Cox. Recruiting to the Ohio forces will continue until August 5, it was an nounced. Relatives accompanied many of the soldiers to the company stations. Tearful farewells were taken in hundreds of homes. Tomorrow the various units not federalize 1 will take the oath of allegiance to the national government. From that moment the state will hold no power over the militia. I Scene rivalled Spanish war days. when 18,000 Ohioans answered the nation's call. At Columbus, mem bers of the ammunition and supply trains and military police, compris ing 16oi nu-n, were given state rec- j ognition today and federalized. They arrived here on five troop trains from various sections of Ohio and went In . to camp at the state fair grounds. I Within two weeks it Is expected all Ohio troops will be enroute to Mont gomery, Ala., for Intensive training. I While held at their home stations the soldiers will be equipped, drilled and vaccinated lo render them Immune from typhoid fever and other diseases. No official act other than Prtsl- regu'ar army since April 2. These enlistments will then have to be arranged according to residence and finally divided according to the exemption 'districts.. This work alone will mean several weeks of labor by large staffs of clerks. When tlie quotas are finally determined, then will come the work of allowing exemptions and dls-chrnges. Care and fairness have been mide the watchwords for exemption boards and this means that there will be no hasty hearings of claims, and that every claim must be substantiated. When affidavits are piesented with claims for exemption, these alliduvidts will hove to be Investigated. All of this will entail considerable time. The final delay will come in the mobilization of the men selected for service. War department men claim that this work will take at least two weeks from the time that the first call noes out and they expect to be at least a month In collecting all of the stragglers who may attempt to evade the darft, or who have been awav from their districts.

The Amsterdam correspondent of the Morning Post cabled today a follows: "Rumors are current her . ; that Emperor William has ab- v dicated In favor of his son, J Prince Joachim. They are un-,: j confirmed, and must be taken with all reserve." . , Prince1 Joachim is the kalser't sixth son. These rumors followed close- fepoa tlio heels of a report that the Raich stag has gone upon a strike and that1 the main committee Is still refusing to vote the 15,000,000,000 mark credit sought by the government. The political dissensions la Germany continue to grow more men-1 uciiig and complicated. The crisis is being watched with the most Intense interest by diplomatic circles in London and Paris, for it is believed that the longer It ' continues the closer it will bring the German government to a realization . of the Inevitable, ' . The allies would rather deal with a disorganized Germany than With ' (w held In the mailed fist of autocracy. A democratized German government - would expect easier . terms of peace, especially so In View of the fact that the U. S., the leading rep, 1 -lie of the world, will be represented at the counsel table. Whether the kaiser had this In niinll when he Issued his rescript, asking equal suffrage for Prussia, or whether It is an empty promise, given at this critical time' to appease the liberals, Is a question that cannot be answered until later. It was apparently the original Intention of the German socialists to cany through a domestic reform program before attempting a peace aims program, as they were doubtful of the centrists attitude, and did not know whether they could obtain a working majority In the" Kelehstag, according to a despatch from The Hague. So, although the adhesion of the centrists was welcomed, it confused the issues. The national liberals were, ready to support a socialistic program but were undecided on the question of a peace without annexations and Indemnities.A Copenhagen telegram quotes the Berliner Tageblatt as saying that the crown council on Monday will go down as one of the momentous events in German history. The kaiser sat at the head of the great mahogany horseshoe shaped table, with the crown prince at his right. Others in attendance were Chancellor Von Bethniann-Hollweg, the secretaries of state and all the Prussian ministers. The Chancellor made a forceful and impassioned speech on the domestic situation and the peace terms. This was to have been the crucial day at the Reichstag, with open debate on the financial position of the government and the proposed constitutional reforms. Thelnter-par-ty resolution of peace also was to have been introduced and discussed. BIGTRANSPORT IE SUNK BY SUB Iindon.
